Trust me when I tell you that I appreciate your sentiments and wish that I shared them. I don't. The November election is about more than just a difference of political ideology, it is about the difference between good and evil. It is about electing a party of appeasers who have the support of Muslim radicals, terrorist supporters and oppressors of humand dignity and rights around the world versus electing a party that is almost the sole opposition to those same forces. It is the difference between supporting a policy of hate versus supporting a policy of optimism. When we talk about the hate that the left has, it is not the same as the hate one might have for broccoli, it is a hate of biblical proportions that encompasses morals, ethics, values and embraces the most extreme beliefs of humankind. It is the hatred of Beelzebub for God.
And, that's why I don't believe that the Republic can survive a Kerry presidency of any duration. Look at his record. Look at his past. Look at his history. Kerry is a man who made a career of preying on and snaring wealthy widows to improve his social and economic position, then lies about the advantages he has gained as a result. As a senator with 20 years of experience in the Senate, he has NOTHING to show for it except a lack of dust on his chair. He has nothing to show for his wretched life but a wealthy widow and 4 fraudulent months in a war that he managed to turn into a debacle. This is not a man who is worthy of the highest political office in our nation. He has earned nothing but our enmity and disdain.
A man like Kerry, with no ethics, morals or character to guide him will leave the American ship of state rudderless. We will be taxed into oblivion while billions of our dollars are thrown away to support every outrageous, leftist cause that exists. Think about electing Stalin or Ho Chi Minh as president. That's what we will get with Kerry. That's why I fear for our Republic.
I do not minimize the threat of a Kerry presidency. However, you assume he would be able to accomplish everything. No president ever has...not even the great Ronald Reagan or the despicable Bill Clinton. Clinton had two years with an all Democratic congress! Clinton was and is a great deal more likeable than Kerry. Kerry has very little charm or charisma. Also, I take comfort in the fact Kerry has accomplished nothing..in the Senate because this demonstrates he obviously does not know how to work with congress effectively. In terms of security, Kerry would be a disaster. I will not be flying (but then we aren't secure with that idiot Mineta in charge now). We must hope and pray, Kerry is not elected, However, if he is we must fight the good fight (under our system) and oust him as soon as possible. In our 200 plus years as a Republic, I am betting we have had men of worse character than Kerry assume the presidency (Clinton comes to mind) and survived. LOL- keep praying for the re-election of President Bush- a man of great character, decency and wisdom (wish he was more conservative, but hey you can't...always get what you want).
